Despite missing James and forward Rui Hachimura, the Lakers secured a 120-108 victory over the Nuggets. Luka Doncic led the team with 31 points, while the short-handed Nuggets, missing Nikola Jokic and Jamal Murray, struggled to keep up.

The Los Angeles Lakers (43-25) are less than one month away from the end of their regular season. In all likelihood, that will also mark the end of shooting guard Bronny James‘ rookie campaign, as the 20-year-old isn’t expected to see any playing time for the Lakers in the playoffs.
